Re: Security Certificates
Interesting information, thanks. Do you guys recommend for your customers to go with SSL certificates if they do not currently use iton their site or does it depend on the type of site?

Re: Security Certificates
In practice most sites that use ssl only do so on the pages handling sensitive data, personal details Credit & Debit cards etc.
The remainder of the site is not ssl'ed (If that's a word)
Re: Security Certificates
https://letsencrypt.org/ tries to make enabling SSL as easy and automated as possible.

Re: Security Certificates
https://letsencrypt.org/ this is very interesting. The only thing is it is designed for servers that are Linux based so sites on windows servers would have to go the traditional routes for the SSL Certificates.
I talked with our guy that host's our Web site and he has been using the letsencrypt on several of his servers and he likes it. He is going to move our site over to one of the servers that uses letsencrypt this week. One of the points he made is that in January for web searches, the search engines are stating to display that a site is not secure so some people may not visit a site because they think it could be a bad site. He is trying to move all of his customers over to new servers that have SSL certificates.
